Products and Activities. The SAM distinguishes products (markets for the goods and services) from<br />

activities, that is, the domestic production of commodities by industries. This distinction is important in<br />

some economies because some activities may produce more than one commodity. For example,<br />

farming activities may produce both livestock and crop products, or the fishing industry may produce<br />

both fish and processed fish products. Reading down the column of the commodity account shows<br />

how much of each commodity is supplied by domestic activities (the detailed SAM will show this for<br />

each activity or industry) and how much is imported from the Rest of the World (ROW). There are two<br />

additional entries in this column:<br />

• Trade margin, which is the difference between the price received by the producer and the<br />

price paid by the purchaser. This difference is the ‘markup’ added by wholesale or retail<br />

traders. Similar margins for transportation from producer to purchaser and other associated<br />

services (insurance) are also included, reflecting the cost of moving a product from the<br />

producer (or, in the case of imports, from the border) to the purchaser.<br />

• Taxes less subsidies on products include taxes like the fuel levy or import tariffs on specific<br />

products.<br />
